It sounds like a bottling company's machine over pressurized 300,000
bottles of orange juice, turning them into orange juice bottle bombs that
could explode without warning, or if they are mishandled.

I thought it would make for an interesting Shadowrun. The runners are
hired to break into a bottling factory, and set one of the machines to over
pressurize the bottles it fills. The Johnson hiring them want's to damage
the bottling company's reputation.

Or they're hired by the company to find out who did it
to them, or to cover up the...uh...mess. :)

Or my personal favourite - the mess was orchestrated
by a terrorist group, who doctored the orange juice
(or whatever) with nitro glycerine, or some slightly
more stable liquid explosive. When they found that the
company had rumbled to their little experiment, the
terrorists grabbed the OJ before it could be recalled.
They plan to deliver it to some major event and
potentially blow a lot of people up. The runners have
been hired by the corp to find them and stop them -
and their very explosive cargo.

Needs some work, of course, but it's a start...and you
could SERIOUSLY screw with your players with something
like this. :)

From memory (ie, from watching Fight Club the other day) frozen orange
juice concentrate (or something like that) is used in the creation of
homemade nitro glycerine, or some other form of explosive

Anyway, that wasnt what I was going to say, I was going to suggest
that either on the run, or soon after, say the next time your group
use a hotel/motel, u stock their bar fridge with orange juice from
whatever company it was from the run. If this orange juice has the
explosive in it or not is up to you, although if events conspire to
have a shootout at the room, perhaps non-explosive would prolong your
runners lives ;)
